A few days ago, Zhang Xuefeng, a famous teacher for postgraduate entrance examination planning, was searched again because of his remarks!This time it's from his mouth."Liberal arts majors are all service industries", one stone stirred up a thousand waves, which didn't send him to the top of the hot search list again.
The reason was that a parent connected with him, saying that his child could get close to a full score in mathematics, but the child didn't want to study science, so she was also very entangled and wanted to listen to Zhang Xuefeng's advice.
Zhang Xuefeng still continued to ask bluntly: Do you pay more attention to the grade of the college or the grade of the employment industry?Liberal arts are all service industries, what is a service industry?Summed up in one word, it is "licking", that is, "I will give you a smile".
As soon as this remark came out, it caused controversy among many people, and many netizens thought that the word "licking" had the meaning of demeaning liberal arts, although liberal arts were not well employed, they should not be despised ......
There are also many netizens who believe that Zhang Xuefeng is telling the truth, although the words are **, they are much cleaner than false and exaggerated.
Many science students also said that science students are also serving, and at worst, service work is not divided into arts and sciences ......
In the face of the rapidly fermenting discussion on the Internet, Zhang Xuefeng knew that he had said the wrong thing again, and posted an apology on his social account, saying that he was also "licking", and there was nothing bad about it.
With the rapid change of the times, both liberal arts and sciences need to follow the pace of the development of the times and make corresponding changes, and interdisciplinary disciplines have emergedIn recent years, interdisciplinary research has also received more and more attention
InterdisciplinarityIt refers to the integration of two or more different majors, such as computer finance, biostatistics, cultural industry management, etc. Most interdisciplinary majors are born in response to the ever-changing employment needs of society, focusing on cultivating students' compound skills and broadening students' employment scope and competitiveness in job search.
EuropeEarly academic crossovers were more sparked by scientists' own interests, and this crossover focused more on communication than on specific topics. United StatesThe academic intersection is different from that of Europe, and is more due to the needs of the country, as well as the needs of large companies.
Among them, it is characterized by the intersection of an applied discipline and other disciplines, and there are four development trends.
The first is the integration of mathematics with other disciplinesFor example, the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) offers four majors: Mathematics and Social Economics, Mathematics and Financial Actuary, Mathematics and Metrology, and Mathematics and Classroom Teaching.
The second is the integration of computer science and other disciplinesFor example, Carnegie Mellon University, a well-known institution for computer science, offers a series of majors such as computer science, statistical analysis, artificial neural networks, computer and plastic arts, metrology verification and financial industry, and metrological verification microbiology.
The third is the integration of economic development and other disciplines。For example, the University of Pennsylvania, with its strong Department of Finance and the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, offers majors in rural economics and applied economic management. Carnegie Mellon, on the other hand, began economic development and statistical analysis, behavioral economics and current policies and institutions, and economic development and mathematical sciences.
Fourth, the integration of microbiology or medicine with other disciplines. Rice University offers programs in Cell Biology and Somatic Cells, Biology and Evolutionary Microbiology, Human Kinesiology, Scientific and Rational Physical and Mental Health, Physical and Cultural Diagnosis and Treatment, Biotechnology and Biotechnology, Organic Chemistry and Biomolecular Engineering, etc.
In addition, U.S. colleges and universities will also offer some interesting interdisciplinary courses for students to explore and Xi.
If you don't want to continue with the discipline you chose as an undergraduate, and you want to switch to other majors, the best way is to choose an interdisciplinary discipline that blends with your undergraduate major, which can not only meet the student's own wishes, but also maximize the use of what she has learned before.
